Wizards of the Coast Unveils Magic: The Gathering’s 2025 Line-Up and more at MagicCon: Las Vegas

Wizards of the Coast, a division of Hasbro, today hosted special panels for Magic fans at MagicCon: Las Vegas, giving them a sneak peek at upcoming releases in 2025 and laying out the foundations for the next era of Magic: The Gathering. MagicCon attendees were also among the first to see six new pieces of art and discover exciting new details for FINAL FANTASY, an upcoming Magic: The Gathering Universes Beyond set slated for release in June 2025.

The beloved FINAL FANTASY series comes to Magic: The Gathering as a tentpole booster release on June 13, 2025. The FINAL FANTASY series is known for its highly imaginative worlds, rich stories, and memorable characters. The set will encompass each main FINAL FANTASY game that has been released to date, from the original FINAL FANTASY to the recently released FINAL FANTASY XVI. The set will also be available to play digitally on Magic: The Gathering Arena.

“At Square Enix, we are always seeking new ways to bring the rich lore and legacy of FINAL FANTASY to life,” said Shoichi Ichikawa, Producer of the FINAL FANTASY series at Square Enix. “This collaboration is important to us because it allows us to merge the immersive storytelling of FINAL FANTASY with the fun strategic gameplay of Magic: The Gathering—something that fans of both franchises will love.”

This set includes the largest collection of FINAL FANTASY artwork ever in a single game. The set will include artwork from Magic artists along with classic illustrations from legendary FINAL FANTASY artists as well as brand new, breathtaking pieces made specifically for this set. From the iconic chocobo to the behemoth, players will see their favorite characters—like Cloud, Terra, Lightning, and Noctis—alongside summons and monsters from across the FINAL FANTASY series.

“This collaboration is more than just cards. It’s about celebrating decades of iconic characters, legendary stories, and unforgettable moments from one of the most beloved franchises in gaming history,” said Zakeel Gordon, Product Architect at Wizards of the Coast. “FINAL FANTASY fans will get to experience these characters in an entirely new way—through the strategic depth and storytelling of Magic: The Gathering.”

In addition to learning more about the upcoming FINAL FANTASY set, MagicCon attendees also got a deep dive on the upcoming Foundations set launching November 15. Foundations includes fan-favorite Legends and Planeswalkers from throughout Magic’s 30-year history, and is the quintessential Magic set for past, present, and future players. The cards released with Foundations will be legal in standard format play through at least through 2029.

After laying the foundations for the next Magic set launching on November 15 this year, Wizards of the Coast gave MagicCon attendees a look ahead at upcoming Magic: The Gathering releases to come in 2025:
